  • Learning to let go

    What are you most proud of in your life?

    What I mean by letting go is not putting my eggs in one basket. Of course there are some products that do have emotional value which I collect for fun that I make sure to not break the bank or make me starve.

    When we do not have as much exposure we tend to stick with a thing which tends to go downhill usually. I had to do some reflecting to not rely on one thing to make me happy.

    I talk about this in my previous blogs where one reliability is temporary but mostly relying on more exposure to create more happiness.

    Happiness can come in the form of wealth, emotional and spirituality. I guess when it comes to the 3, patience is the way to go.

    Similar to photography, we should be exposed and open minded to a variety of things

  • Fads

    What I mean by Fads are the unpredictability of products or hype. Just like Fads, it is similar to being your own boss because when you are your own boss, there are unpredictable customers or cash flow.

    This makes life interesting in a way as you do not know when money is coming or you meet different customers at different times.

    This can come in when you are opening products when you do not know if a high value is inside or not because you do not know if there is a rare thing inside. This may be a temporary boost to depression to happiness at a cheaper cost.

    Like opening packs, never know if there is a rare inside to make you wealthier!

  • Learning how to attempt

    What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.

    When there is something new to learn, there will always be mistakes whether it is maximum, minimum or fail results.

    I mean you will still live in and move on even if you make mistakes, just if it does not cost you a fortune.

    But trying out new things is always good for the well being as it promotes brain activity to prevent dementia.

    If by trying out new things that do not harm yourself physically then it is still a good learning experience.

  • Not end of the world

    What would you do if you lost all your possessions?

    I guess if you lose everything you worked hard for, I guess you would be sad and frustrated. But one thing is for sure… Frustration makes us make bad decisions.

    What would be recommended is to kind of set a goal not a plan but kind of working towards the goal one at a time. There will be minor setbacks but that is part of the journey.

  • Brands with an impact

    What brands do you associate with?

    I guess everyone had a different way of supporting a brand. But supporting a brand is about the money, most of the time. It is not about the money to such but it does show that money talks in a business sense.

    When words people show when you support a brand, it will eventually slow down as the society moves as a different market approaches.

  • Cooking education

    What’s your favorite recipe?

    I guess we all have to learn, I guess never stop learning by reading books or educational podcasts. If anyone wants entertainment then it is free or just a pay for someone else’s work.

    But I mean it is best to expose yourself to a variety of things which then you can put together to create something to solve a problem to make more money in the meantime which people will pay if you solve their problems.

  • Playing with the system for the sake of mental health

    I believe we should follow the rules of the system and that is how our mental health is intact. If we believe all these theories eventually people are going to drive you crazy because it is best not to know other peoples business too much unless it is honest work like serving food or doing construction.

    In our society we need constructions to be built in order to maintain a steady society and treat everyone as kings and queens in society. I mean everyone is different with different personalities but it is how we make these personalities shine.

  • Recycling…

    When we have second hand goods we want to buy, if they are still usable, we can brush it up like paint it or sand it then it will be near new. Also it looks new! It is easier to say than done because I do not do that yet but maybe in due time I may try this.

    I collect cables used for copper and just resell them to scrap yards but right now I am just keeping them so in due time they will go up in value. I may even store them in a storage unit for fun while supporting the business as well. I also collect bottles and cans, so after I drink them, I put them in a bag to take them to a recycling facility when I have a lot.

    There are a lot of ways to recycle over in Sydney, some are cheaper than others or some you could make money out of but when we recycle we tend to make the environment more friendly as in not using a lot of resources that are not used on earth.

    When we recycle we also make another life for these items for us to consume.

    Recycling can also give us good mental well being as it makes us think we are contributing to the eco-friendliness of our society and also to give us a purpose to lean on.

  • Driver

    What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?

    My oldest thing I use is my car, the other things I use are a bit newer as they break down or I lose it. When it comes to collectibles it is older than my car but I do not use it. It is mostly for personality in my room. Somehow when you put different things in your room, it creates a specific vibe, could be homey or other traits.

    I use my car daily mostly for business purposes, to make money of course. My car is used for agile purposes in order to create the purpose that needs to be fulfilled. The purpose is making people with mental health issues or vulnerable people a chance to be their own boss.

    My car has been pretty reliable so far… Without much maintenance, just an oil change or a top up of fluids which I can do myself.

  • Don’t think about money too much

    We all need money in society to look after ourselves to buy food or to fund our hobbies. But when we think about money this or money that, our mental state tends to get affected. Maybe this is due to the overworking of our minds…

    But of course it is easy to say money doesn’t buy happiness but in some way it does because you have firepower to do something you want.

    Even if you do not earn a lot of money like the national wage, there is always something to make your money work for you. One thing I do is I allocate some money into a stable investment which will grow overtime. I use an app called Raiz.

    So when you are off working and needing some money, there are always opportunities to experiment and gain some knowledge in order to make the money work for you thus more wealth for you guys.

    When it comes to a support role you have to be passionate about the job or else it will eat you up if you are constantly thinking about the wage you get instead of living in the moment to support the other party which is handed to you for the role.
